We’re always looking for great graphics to use on our websites or blog posts to add color and brilliance to our content – at least I am. Gone are the days when you could simply Google an image and use it. Getty images (among others) are really clamping down on illegal use of their photos, and the penalties can be high.

Never fear though. There are a ton of awesome photo sites out there, full of lots and lots of beautiful, hi-resolution photos just begging to be included in your content. Some are paid sites (BigStock Photo is my favorite paid site), and some are free.
